MISSION

Superlative Mobile Applications

Small Planet creates experiences that make users happy and clients successful.

People

We are a group of hard-working, intensely curious folks who care deeply about making great apps. Aside from being designers, developers, makers, and thinkers, we are filmmakers, cyclists, neuroscientists, and more.

Services

We help clients transform their business through mobile. We help define objectives clearly, then design and build brilliant apps for anything that has a screen. We can’t always show the work, though, because of confidentiality. Rest assured, it’s excellent.

We also consult on all aspects of mobile strategy, advising clients on how to execute quickly and thoughtfully.
